This 'n That

A couple of free useful computer utilities I found in the last week or so, is from Fresh Devices And its still my experience that Yankee Doodle dandy folks are the most insular folks I know, and things like mostly having any idea its not the same time all over the world as it maybe in any given time zone in America passes them completely by most of the time. So, Microsoft's Time Zone may be useful! And what seems like a useful web site bulding utility for the none geek is also HERE

I got up in horrendous pain and decided to make some phone calls early on, as I don't know as the day pans out if I would be up to it later in the day. One of them was to my dad. I made four altogether and had another more important (for me at least) than the others to make but are now too shattered to make it, at least now!! Stuff like that can be very grrr making. As its rather pathetic that using my voice wears me out so much, but it does because I have to think about it all the time to get it to project, add to that I can't take a breathe without thinking about it either, the whole business becomes very hard work!!

The George Bush family tree has some black sheep in the family too, according to this report:

HARTFORD, Conn. - A Yale University historian has uncovered a 1918 letter that seems to lend validity to the lore that Yale University's ultra-secret Skull and Bones society swiped the skull of American Indian leader Geronimo.

The letter, written by one member of Skull and Bones to another, purports that the skull and some of the Indian leader's remains were spirited from his burial plot in Fort Sill, Okla., to a stone tomb in New Haven that serves as the club's headquarters.

According to Skull and Bones legend, members — including
President Bush's grandfather, Prescott Bush — dug up Geronimo's grave when a group of Army volunteers from Yale were stationed at the fort during World War I. Geronimo died in 1909. Full story

If I can find the energy later on, I may start backing up my files to reformat my hard drives, as both of them are down to the last few gigs! And a few things are not working well. Will see how the day goes.


Have a nice day! |
